Jalen Suggs News, Rumors, Updates - Orlando Magic

Questionable for Tuesday's contest Suggs (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Nets.

Impact Suggs tweaked his right ankle sprain during Sunday's narrow loss to Philadelphia and may be in danger of missing additional contests. Gary Harris (knee) is also questionable, so R.J. Hampton and Terrence Ross may be in store for increased roles if they are both ruled out.

Tweaks ankle, won't return Suggs exited Sunday's game against Philadelphia with a sprained right ankle and will not return.

Impact Suggs was already nursing the injury coming into the day, and he appeared to tweak the ankle at some point during the third quarter. Prior to exiting, Suggs posted 10 points (4-13 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six assists, five rebounds, a steal and a block in 22 minutes.

Will start Sunday Suggs (ankle) will start Sunday's contest against the 76ers.

Impact Suggs is slated to start his third straight contest following a two-game absence due to a right ankle sprain. He's struggled in both contests since the injury, totaling just seven points, six assists and three rebounds. However, before the injury, Suggs had scored in double figures in six of seven contests and had averaged 14.4 points, 5.6 assists and 4.3 rebounds during that stretch. He'll look to get back on track Sunday.

Questionable vs. 76ers Suggs (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers.

Impact Suggs has played in two games since returning from a sprained right ankle but has struggled in both. If he sits out, more run could be in store for R.J. Hampton, Markelle Fultz and Gary Harris.

Struggles mightily in return Suggs (ankle) produced two points (0-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes Wednesday in the Magic's 108-102 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Suggs returned after missing the previous two games with a sprained right ankle, but the Magic may have been better off letting him sit out another contest. He recorded nearly as many combined points, rebounds and assists as turnovers (five) in the loss, with the performance being arguably his worst of the season. Assuming his knee is feeling fine coming out of the game, however, Suggs should see a slight increase in playing time Friday against the Timberwolves.

Will play Wednesday Suggs (ankle) is available for Wednesday's matchup with the Pelicans.

Impact Suggs will return to the lineup after a two-game absence due to a sprained right ankle. As a result, R.J. Hampton will shift to a bench role. Suggs is averaging 12.5 points, 4.5 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 28.0 minutes per game so far during his rookie season.

Going through pregame warmups Suggs (ankle) is participating in warmups but remains a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

Impact Suggs has missed the last two games due to a sprained right ankle, so it's a good sign that he's getting some work in prior to Wednesday's tip. However, it still isn't clear if he'll be available against the Pelicans. If Suggs is ultimately unable to go, R.J. Hampton would pick up another start in his place.

Listed as questionable Suggs (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Pelicans.

Impact Suggs has missed back-to-back games due to a sprained right ankle, and the questionable tag doesn't bring much optimism, as the rookie has drawn that label ahead of each game he was sidelined for. With Suggs' status up in the air and Markelle Fultz scheduled for a maintenance day, the Magic's backcourt may be extremely thin during Wednesday's matchup with New Orleans.

Ruled out Tuesday Suggs (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Suns, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.

Impact Suggs didn't take part in the Magic's morning shootaround and will be sidelined for a second straight game. The rookie's next chance to suit up will be the second half of Orlando's back-to-back Wednesday in New Orleans. In Suggs' absence, R.J. Hampton will draw a second consecutive start.

Sits out shootaround Suggs (ankle) didn't take part in the Magic's morning shootaround and remains questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns, Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel reports.

Impact At this stage, there's a good chance Suggs will end up being a game-time call ahead of the 7 p.m. ET opening tip. With the Magic entering a Tuesday/Wednesday back-to-back set, it wouldn't be a surprise if the team exercises caution and holds Suggs out with the goal of him being ready to return Wednesday at New Orleans.

Questionable for Tuesday's contest Suggs (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Suns.

Impact Suggs was sidelined for Saturday's blowout loss to the Grizzlies and wasn't able to practice Monday, so while he's listed as questionable, he hasn't been trending in the right direction. If he's forced to sit out, Gary Harris, R.J. Hampton and Markelle Fultz are all candidates for increased roles.

Sits out practice Monday Suggs (ankle) didn't take part in Monday's practice, Dan Savage of the Magic's official site reports.

Impact A sprained right ankle kept Suggs out of Saturday's blowout loss to the Grizzlies, and it's not a great sign that he wasn't able to get on the floor Monday morning. The Magic haven't ruled him out of Tuesday's home matchup against the Suns, but at this point he looks to be trending more toward doubtful than questionable.

Out Saturday Suggs (ankle) is out Saturday against the Grizzlies.

Impact Suggs will miss his first game since Jan. 12. In his absence, R.J. Hampton is getting the start, and Markelle Fultz should see more usage as well.

Questionable Saturday Suggs is questionable for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies due to a right ankle sprain.

Impact Suggs has topped 10 points in six of his last seven appearances, and he's averaged 14.4 points, 5.6 assists and 4.3 rebounds in 28.7 minutes per game during that time. If he's unavailable for the second half of the back-to-back set Saturday, Gary Harris and R.J. Hampton should see additional run.

Double-double in win Suggs notched 14 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 assists, three rebounds and two steals over 27 minutes during Monday's 119-103 victory over Indiana.

Impact Suggs supplied his second double-double of the season, with both coming within the last five games. While the counting stats have been nice, Suggs' shooting woes continue to persist, as he converted at a 36.1 percent rate from the field over 11 February contests. Perhaps Suggs is turning a corner coming out of the All-Star break, but the return of Markelle Fultz (knee) probably won't help Suggs' case for earning more minutes than he's currently receiving in a starting role.

MARCH 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Held in check Friday Suggs ended with three points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across 15 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 119-111 win over the Rockets.

Impact Suggs topped 15 points in each of Orlando's three games ahead of the All-Star break, and he was productive during last week's Rising Stars competition. However, he got into foul trouble during Friday's matchup and committed six turnovers in the win. Although Suggs' performance Friday was discouraging, he had logged double-digit field-goal attempts in nine of his 10 appearances prior to the All-Star break, so his subpar fantasy production against Houston can be largely attributed to his lack of availability due to his foul trouble.
